Answer to Question #292140 in Mechanical Engineering for Sadiq Muhammad

Question

A tank contain 500kg of liquid whose specific gravity is 2. Determine the volume of the liquid in the tank

Answer 1

$Density=specific\ gravity\times{density\ of\ water}=2\times1000=2000\frac{kg}{m^3}$

$V=\frac{m}{\rho}=\frac{500\ kg}{2000\ kg/m^3}=0.25\ m^3=250\ L$

Answer: 250 L
